Chapter 818: I’m Just Afraid You Won’t Be Happy

In the dining room, the family of three was sitting at the table with a hot hotpot.

Xia Ning saw the boiling red oil in the pot and felt her stomach ache.

But Qiao Yu and Enoch were having a good time eating. She had to put some food into her bowl. Seeing the chili powder on the meat, she had to pick them up one by one and put them on the plate. She was already feeling the spice just by taking a small bite.

“Cough cough…” Xia Ning covered her mouth and coughed. She was choking. It couldn’t go down or up. She coughed so hard that her tears almost came out.

“Mummy…” Enoch looked at Xia Ning nervously.

“No, nothing…” Xia Ning answered. She stood up and rushed to the kitchen. She poured a big glass of water and poured it down. But her throat was still sore.

After so many years, she still could not eat spicy food. She was not in good health when she was young and could not eat. Later when she went to England, she got used to not eating anymore.

Ever since Lu Qing left her side, she had never eaten chili.

But Qiao Yu’s family seemed to eat spicy food. It seemed like she had to get used to it.

Footsteps came from behind her all of a sudden. Just as Xia Ning realized what was going on, that person was standing next to her. He took the glass she had just used and fetched another glass of water.

“Does it taste bad?” His voice was very calm.

Xia Ning was caught by surprise and did not dare to look into his eyes. She only saw the cup in front of her again and answered, “No, it’s very good.”

“You are always like this.” There was some irony in his voice.

Xia Ning tilted her head to look at him and her eyes happened to meet his dark eyes.

“If you like or don’t like it, you never told me. Do you want me to guess?!” Qiao Yu stared at her. “But I can’t guess every time.”

Was he talking about the lack of communication between them?! Xia Ning saw his disappointed look and opened her mouth. Suddenly, she felt a bit upset. It turned out that silence did not get rid of the anger in his heart. Instead, it brought out other discontents.

“I’m just afraid you won’t be happy.” Xia Ning lowered her head slightly like a kid who did something wrong. She said in a low voice, “At times like this, it’s not wrong for me to lower my presence. Plus, it’s just a meal. I can eat anything.”

“Just a meal?” Qiao Yu suddenly lifted Xia Ning’s chin and made her look at him. “In your eyes, am I the kind of person who can ignore your preferences and force you? If you tell me you don’t like it, will I do it?”

Xia Ning bit her lips and looked at him. Suddenly, she felt wronged. “But you’re ignoring me, you’re having a cold war with me.” She did not dare to talk anymore.

Moreover, when she was on the second floor, she said something wrong. He turned around and left on the spot. Wasn’t that him being angry? Why would she dare to say anything else? What if she said something she shouldn’t say?!

Qiao Yu glared at Xia Ning and said through gritted teeth, “Whose fault is this? Who was the one who was involved in a scandal with another man? Can’t I be mad?! If I get involved with another woman another day…”

“No!” Xia Ning frowned and glared at him. “If you dare to have any scandals with another woman, I…”

Her harsh words were like a bucket of cold water that extinguished the last bit of fire in his heart. Qiao Yu leaned his head slightly and approached her with a burning gaze. “If I have any scandals with another woman, what will you do?”
